Alien Ant Farm have partnered with Creeptoons to create an animated video for their latest single “Reasons.” You can check that out below. Vocalist Dryden Mitchell previously commented:
“‘Reasons‘ resonates with me because I love the notion that some people, if granted the opportunity of a second chance, actually make the change in themselves to be present and reliable to someone. This song is tight and concise, and an ANThem to all who have wanted to actually make that change for the better. This song is about redemption and making your wrongs right. It’s about second chances after hurtful, dumb mistakes. Recording this song with the Judge & Jury production team has been a joy and a privilege to remember for a lifetime.”
The dates have been revealed for this year’s Furnace Fest. The event will take place at the Sloss Furnaces in Birmingham, AL on October 10-11. Fans can sign up for more details HERE. It is unclear who is putting on the festival following its recent buyout. However, Monster Energy are rumored to be involved.
Steel Panther have signed a new deal with Frontiers Music Srl. The band’s first release through the label is a new single titled “The Mother’s Day Song.” You can find a video for that track below:
Steel Panther commented:
“We’ve signed a lot of things in our career including more body parts than we can remember, but we have now officially signed with Frontiers. Serafino and his team sent us a better batch of drugs and hookers than they gave to Dave Mustaine and Megadeth, and we all saw how great that album did. Those Italians know how to rub us the right way, and they paid us while doing it. We can’t wait to go visit them in their homeland and enjoy their women and wine. Hide your moms, priests, and nuns.”

Frozen Soul have premiered a new video for their new song “Chaos Of Reign.” This track is from the band’s newly released album “No Place Of Warmth.”
Vocalist Chad Green commented:
“[‘Chaos of Reign’ is] about that moment when you’ve had enough and you’re not taking anymore sh*t from anyone. The video morphed into a prequel to the ‘Morbid Effigy’ music video by accident. Conceptually Brendan (Director), Zach (Actor), and I wanted to keep up the same theme of plot twisting the end of our videos like we did ‘Morbid’ – an ode to old school horror and Sci Fi thrillers that I’ve always loved! Zach randomly joked around about us playing in a snow globe. Sam had mentioned it a few years ago and we just hadn’t ever thought it was doable, but then it dawned on me! What if you didn’t know we were in the snow globe until the end. We then landed on London being in it as always, and I thought we could make it a prequel to start off our Frozen Soul cinematic universe. It worked out because I still had the axe and the meat-made snowman from the ‘Morbid’ video, so we dressed London up in the same outfit and made it to where the guy he was murdering (Zach) was the guy who London turned into the flesh-made snowman at the end of the Morbid video—boom, prequel!”

The group commented:
“While we’re bummed that we aren’t out on the road with all of you right now, we’re thrilled to announce that we’ve managed to reschedule every single date of our postponed May tour!
All original tickets will be honored, and tickets for all newly added shows are ON SALE NOW.
We’ve added dates to our PNW tour in Bellingham, WA and Bend, OR, as well as new dates in Warrendale and Scranton, PA, Amityville, NY, and Lakewood, OH…
Huge thanks to our booking agents, the promoters and staff at every venue, the support acts, and our crew for working with us to reschedule all of these dates. An equally huge thank you to everyone who bought tickets for these shows for your patience and understanding. We truly appreciate it, and we look forward to seeing you soon!”
Margera added:
“Thank you for being so understanding everyone I really appreciate it. My shoulder is on the mend and so far so good. I hope these new dates work for everyone but if you can’t make the new date refunds are available or sell it to a buddy. Love you guys and can’t wait to see you all”
Still Remains have pemiered a new video for their new song “Erase You.” You can check that out below. The track is from the band’s new EP, “Spirit Breaker,” which will be released on June 12.
Dogstar, the project featuring actor Keanu Reeves (“The Matrix”, etc.) on bass, have premiered a new video for their new song “This Sphere.” This track is from the band’s new album, “All In Now,” which will be released on May 29.
Lovebites have premiered a new video for their song “Reaper’s Lullaby.” The clip’s debut coincides with the physical release of the band’s latest album “Outstanding Power.” The group commented:
“While our music is fundamentally rooted in power metal, we embrace a wide range of musical styles. Among them, ‘Reaper’s Lullaby’ can be described as a fast and brutal track at 240 BPM, featuring tremolo riffs that convey a cold, chilling atmosphere and distill one of the most aggressive facets of Lovebites’ musical identity. The music video also stays true to the song’s image, depicting us performing within a circle formed by candles, resulting in a dark visual presentation that differs from previous Lovebites music videos. We invite you to fully experience the dark side of Lovebites.”
